Vega thanks for the additional confirmation. Man I can not wait till tomorrow. The last time I purchased any VC/WW games I got for WW Gyrostarr and for VC Alex Kid for the Sega Master System on my Birthday on June 23rd. Can't wait till tomorrow!

Wild West Guns (WiiWare), Sonic the Hedgehog (Sega Master System), SplatterHouse 2 (Sega Genesis).

In case noone has read the VCF thread, WWG is ~2/3rds a Wii Play shooting gallery clone.

Just to TEASE you and be a jerk a New preview of Strong bad is on Nintendo channel.

Never under estimate how nintendo will find a way to **** you over.

I bought Wild West Guns. i don't have wiiplay and I have perfect shot guns and the game is racist and only $10 so thats good for me.
I was going to buy mega man too but I guess Nintendo doesn't want my money.

WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD ANYONE BUY SONIC for master system? I didn't even knew a version existed on master system. I seriously doubt Sonic on Master system will be fast or fun compared to Genesis game.

the SMS version was the first I played as a kid, I knew a guy who had an SMS. Of course I was envious, same about the kids who had a NES or, heaven forbid, a SNES. All I had was a C64.

The Master System version isn't that bad. Yeah it's not on the same level as the Genesis ones, but it's a decent platformer in it's own right.

The Master System did not have "Blast Processing", therefore, how can Sonic even run on this system?

A number of variables can affect a game’s release date. Therefore, the Wii-kly Update is the only authority for confirmed release dates of Virtual Console games. - Nintendo of America

"A number of variables"....Like somebody sat on the final copy and busted it?

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #2161 on:** August 04, 2008, 11:28:38 PM »

I am just so mad about this whole thing. I bought 2 wiipoints cards yesterday in anticipation for these games that was gonna come out today.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #2162 on:** August 05, 2008, 02:21:57 AM »

You should have known better than to expect that many games to release all at the same time.

Yeah, people upset over this are likely a bunch of naive fans.

People, forget your angst for a second and use logical thinking. WHEN has there ever been a fantastic VS/WiiWare week? Nintendo likes to balance things by releasing one GOOD game and a couple of decent/mediocre ones.

The Samurai Showdown/Ys and Megaman released would have been too much, it goes against the status quo.

The way I see it, all three companies thought their game was going to be the premiere game of the week, but in the end none of them were.

Nintendo has control over this. Fans will be insulted and offended, but that's how it works. If I am not mistaken, this is how digital distribution works; third parties have no control over what will be in the system.

Sooner or later, the games will be on the VC. Capcom already said that Megaman 1 and 2 WILL be out before the September release of Megaman 9. Its not like they are never coming out.

Indeed, fanboy's across the States would have exploded on Monday morning, a PR nightmare.

If Nintendo was only worried about fanboys there would be no staggering at all.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #2167 on:** August 09, 2008, 09:55:28 AM »

Man, I really need a storage solution. I bought two WiiWare games last night, I'm up to eight now, but even if I had no VC games I couldn't fit all of them on my Wii at the same time. As it is with just six of the eight I can only fit 11 of my 63 VC games. Why does Nintendo not understand that people like me will spend a lot more money on downloadable games if the space restraints weren't there? I am as mad about the lack of a storage solution as the entire staff combined is mad about Nintendo's E3 showing.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #2168 on:** August 09, 2008, 12:10:23 PM »

I have no qualms kicking my unused games off the system (which, admittedly, are way too many), the contraining factor is more those points cards that are never in stock at the standard price, only at higher ones.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #2169 on:** August 09, 2008, 12:15:11 PM »

I still play all my WiiWare games, though, I don't have any unused games. I had to delete two WiiWare games that I still play and enjoy, not to mention the dozens of VC games I can't fit that I played regularly.

IGN has started doing reports " The Worst Games on Virtual Console "

http://wii.ign.com/articles/897/897106p1.html

oh boy that work will never be finished.

probably would of been easier to do "best games" since that list is short and hasn't really changed.
